Im still on the original battery despite it being outside on -35 unplugged.
Finally got the LH Battery put in today.... Had been putting it off for a few months. It went a lot better than I thought it would, all things considered.
I\u2019ve owned an S60 T8 for 2 and a half years now. Like others have said Volvo PHEVs deplete the battery first by default before touching the gas engine.
I have been driving a 2023 S60 Recharge for 2 years now. If someone told you it's bad to drive them with the battery depleted, they lied to you.
Depending on the year/model of the car you might need to have the battery "registered" using a special tool after installing it.
Just do it yourself or find an independent shop.
VW OEM batteries in modern cars often do that. I was lucky to detect slightly "lazy" cranking in my 2018 GSW 4Mo. Tested and showed %51 SOH even after fully charging it. Lasted 6 years almost to the date.
My golf 2010 VW dashboard ****s down but car remains running. When it don't start take out the battery touch the two cables together with out the battery. For 15 seconds to reboot the car and it starts back.
The battery is trash - if it was at 4v, the cells are either internally buckled/shorted - or the AGM is damaged and thus will not hold any charge (no capacity).
On the day of delivery itself, the car wouldn\u2019t start. The dealership jump-started it and said there was a small battery issue, assuring me that it won\u2019t happen again. But from that day onwards, the vehicle has never been reliable.
